Entrecote | ||
A steak taken from the rib section of beef. It is boneless and has a very thin layer of fat. Although steaks cut from the loin end of a rib are of finer quality, the whole rib may be used for an entrecote. Sometimes, the term is used for a strip steak; however, it is not an accurate description. This cut of beef is called the faux-filet or contre-filet. |
